1-2 Product Handling:
Your new Retractable Awning has been constructed, packaged, and shipped with the utmost
care and state-of-the-art technology. Take care when removing the awning from the shipping
container so it will be protected from accidental damage or soiling. Once the awning has been
removed from the shipping container do not drop or drag the awning across the ground.
Transport the awning by lifting on the square support tube that runs the entire length of the
awning. It is also very important to take care when removing the packaging material around
the awning. The fabric material is just below the clear protective wrap and use of a razor knife
can slice into it. The flat surface contained within are pieces of
1
/

" styrofoam that help
protect the awning during shipping. Carefully cut the clear wrap down the entire length of
the styrofoam. The remainder of the wrap can now be easily removed.
IMPOR
TANT WARNING!
Your new awning is intended as a protection against the sun only. It is not to be used
during periods of strong wind, rain, hail, or snow. The warranty will not cover use during
these periods.

2-2 House Preparation:
Inspect the surface to which the awning is to be mounted. Be sure you have a clear span with
no light fixtures, downspouts or other obstructions. Sight the wall surface to be sure there are
no bows or sweeps in the wall. (See Detail #1a & #1b) If there are, shimming the mounting
brackets or ledger board will be required at time of installation. Since the awning weighs
7-10 pounds per linear foot, it is important to install the mounting brackets securely to
p.2
support the weight of the awning when extended. It is critical that the mounting lag bolts
be installed into a stud or header board. Plywood sheathing or equivalent will not
support the awning. If the awning is to be mounted under the soffit (overhang), a
Weatherguard Cover is not necessary. However, if your awning is not protected we strongly
recommend the purchase of a Weatherguard Cover. See your local retailer where you
purchased this awning.
If you have chosen the roof mount option, please see the instructions in Sec. 2-5 Roof Mount
Installation at this time. You will return to Sec. 2-3 Awning Installation instructions later.
2-3 Awning Installation:
For wall mount installation, there are two options available. Choose the one that best fits your
desired application. For the best installation on any surface use option "A". If mounting over
stucco use option "A" only.
To achieve the proper amount of headroom under your awning, after the installation is
completed, we recommend securing the mounting brackets a minimum of 7'-6" above the
deck or patio. If you have ordered the optional WeatherGuard Cover (Sec. 2-4), see the
instructions for additional information and brackets required during the installation of
options "A" or "B".
Option "A" (See Detail #1) Measure the length of the awning. Determine the position (left
to right) on the wall where the awning is to be mounted, and mark each end with an "E" for
end. Locate all studs between the two "E's" and mark the siding with an "S" over each stud.
Install a 2" x 8" pressure treated header board on the wall at desired mounting height, the
entire length of the awning. Use a 2" x 10" if you have ordered the Weatherguard Cover
option. (Other dimensional materials such as spruce may be used for the header board, but
must be capped with aluminum, painted or stained for weather protection). The header board
can be mounted directly over wood lap siding with the use of siding blocks or shims available
DETAIL #1A
DETAIL #1B
p.3
DETAIL #1
DETAIL #2
p.4
at your local retailer, however if your home has vinyl siding we recommend cutting and
removing the siding, and securing the header board through the sheathing into the studs
directly. (Be sure the header board is level). Hardware for securing the header board to the
wall is not provided but it is recommended that 3/8" galvanized lag bolts and washers be used.
It is critical that all lag bolts be mounted into structural material such as studs or
box sill. Counter sink the lags, and caulk all joints. To install the mounting brackets (See
Detail #2), measure the distance in on both sides of the awning to the center of the arm
supports (shoulder). Mark this on the header board with an "A". (See Detail #3). Measure
over a minimum of 3" to either side of this mark and using the mounting bracket as a guide,
mark the hole locations. Important: If the arm supports are more than 12" from the end of
the awning, install the mounting brackets to the outside of the arm support. Drill 1/4" pilot
holes centered on the hole and then install the mounting brackets with the
3
/
8
" x 4" galvanized
lag bolts and washers provided. On wider awnings, center additional brackets.
Option "B" (See Detail #4) Mounting brackets can be installed directly on the wall. It is
critical that all brackets be mounted level, plumb, and on the same surface plane. Brackets
that are out of alignment, or mounted on an uneven wall surface will cause the awning not
to function properly. To install, measure the entire length of the awning. Determine the
position (left to right) on the wall where the awning is to be located and mark both ends with
an "E" for end. Locate all studs between the two "E's" and mark the siding with an "S" over
each stud. (See Detail #2) Measure the distance from each end of the awning to the center of
the arm supports, then transfer this measurement in from both "E" marks and mark this
measurement "A" for arms. Locate the "S" mark closest to each of the "A" marks, allowing at
least 3" for the arm support (shoulders). With the mounting bracket as a guide, mark the hole
locations centered on the stud and drill
1
/

" pilot holes. Attach the mounting brackets using
the
3
/
8
" x 4" galvanized lag bolts and washers provided. If possible, it may be necessary to
move the awning left or right on the wall to accommodate the stud locations. It is critical
that all lag bolts are mounted into the studs. On wider awnings center additional brackets
and secure to the studs.

Place one bracket on either side
of the arm support shoulder.
Mounting the Awning:
Once all the mounting brackets have been installed on the wall, it is time to place the awning
in the brackets. This step will require at least 2 people. ( See Detail #6) Lift the awning and
slide the mounting bar (support tube) into the mounting brackets. The gear loop will be at
the bottom of the awning. Secure the mounting bar to the mounting brackets with the bolts
supplied. Be sure the mounting bar is seated flush to the back of the bracket. Slide the bolts
up through from the bottom of the bracket and thread into the top hole. Be sure to tighten
completely so that the locking lip on the inside of the mounting bracket locks down over the
mounting bar.
At this time you can remove any remaining protective packaging, wraps, and ties from the
under side of the awning.
DETAIL #6
2-4 Weatherguard Cover: (Optional for 6000, 7000, 8000 series)
The optional Weatherguard Hood Cover is designed to keep your awning dry and free from
direct sunlight when not in use. If your awning is motorized than it will also serve as
protection from moisture, which could damage the internal components of the motor. The
Weatherguard Hood may be installed before or after the awning has been installed on the
home. We recommend that it is installed after because it will add less overall weight and will
be less cumbersome when the awning is lifted into place.
Tools needed to complete the assembly are as follows.
E. 13mm socket or adjustable wrench
F. Philips screwdriver
G. 5mm allen wrench
p.7
1. Attach a Weatherguard Hood Bracket next to each wall bracket (See Detail #7)
2. Slide the hood sections together
as shown in (Detail #8). For hood
covers with multiple sections,
stagger the joints. (See Detail #9)
Slide 2 "T" bolts in the center track
placing one on either side of the
joint. Place a splice bar over the
bolts and fasten with nuts. Repeat
this process on the front portion of
the hood. For hood to perform
properly, joints must be staggered.
Next, count the number of hood-
mount brackets on the square tube.
From the end of the awning, measure
along the square tube the distances
from the end of the awning to the
position of each of the hood brackets
and transfer these measurements to
the Weatherguard Hood. Slide 1 "T"
bolt in the outer track for each hood
bracket and "T" bolt in the inner
track for each hood bracket. (See
Detail #9) Install both end caps with

the Philips screws provided. (See Detail #10) Lift the hood into place and align the "T" bolts
with the slot in the hood brackets and secure with nuts. If the Weatherguard Cover needs to
be closer to the house, then the "T" bolts should be moved from the outer track to the center
track (See Detail #11)
DETAIL #10
2-5 Roof Mount Installation: (6000, 7000, 8000 series only)
When installing roof mount brackets, it is important that all brackets be level, and plumb to
the front of the facia. By mounting the brackets plumb to the facia, gear operation can be
utilized from the deck or patio with the use of the hand crank. A proper sealant must be used
around all lag bolts through roofing to prevent any possibility of leaking. Ask your retailer for
their recommendation of sealant. The following instructions assume the installation is on a
pitched roof with standard roof shingles and wood frame construction. For all other types
seek the assistance of a local building contractor.

First, measure the entire length of the
awning. Determine the position (left
or right) on the roof where the awning
is to be located and mark both ends
with an "E" for end. Locate all the roof
rafters between the two "E's" and mark
the edge of the roofing with an "R"
over each rafter. (See Detail #12)
Measure the distance from each end of
the awning to the center of the arm
supports, (See Detail #13) then
transfer this measurement in from
both "E" marks, and mark this
measurement "A" for arms.
DETAIL #12
p.9
DETAIL #13
DETAIL #14
p.10
Locate the "R" mark closest to the "A" mark. With roof bracket Section "1" as a guide,
position the bracket on the "R" mark and drill three 1/4" pilot holes through the roofing and
into the rafter. Now attach Section "1" of each roof mount bracket using three 3/8" x 4"
galvanized lag bolts with a washer under each head. Do not completely tighten at this time.
(See Detail #14) Be sure to center the lag bolts in the middle of each of the oval slots and
apply sealant around each bolt at the time of installation. On wider awnings, center
additional brackets and install over roof rafters. Important: Before securing lag bolts, be
sure all roof brackets are on the same plane. TIP: Stretch a piece of string along the front
of all the roof brackets and adjust as necessary. The oval slots in Sec. "1" allow this piece
to be adjusted. Once all the Sec. "1" pieces are attached and on the same plane, they can be
tightened securely to the roof.
Attach remaining sections to Sec. "1" using the
3
/

" hex bolts, washers, and nuts
provided. (See Detail #15) Do not completely tighten the bolts at this time. Attach Sec. "2"
to the front of Sec. "1". Attach Sec. "4" to the back of Sec. "1". Attach Sec. "3" to the top of
Sec. "2". Once all roof brackets have been assembled, fold the bracket forming a triangle.
Section "3" and "4" can now be adjusted to form a level vertical face on Sec. "2". Once the
face is level, you will need to drill two

" holes though Sec. "4" using the predrilled holes in
Sec "3" as a guide. Tip: A clamp can be used to hold Sections "2" and "3" together while
drilling the holes. Once this is completed, secure the two sections together with two 1

hex bolts, washers and nuts provided. All other sections of the roof mount bracket may now
be tightened securely. (See Detail #16) Complete the same procedure on the remaining roof
brackets. Now install one awning mounting bracket to the front of each roof mount bracket
with two

2-6 Motors and Controls: (optional)
If you purchased the optional motorized version, your Futureguard Retractable Awning has
been equipped with a state of the art electric motor that requires no maintenance and is pre-
wired and ready to use.
R
emote Control System:
A 12' plug-in power cord and hand held transmitter are provided for ease of installation and
operation. Warning; Before you plug in your motor, be sure the receptacle is equipped
with a GFI (Ground Fault Interrupter). If it is not, have your local electrician install one
before you plug it in. Your awning has also been equipped with a manual override. The
manual override feature allows you to retract the awning during power loss and protect the
awning from storm and wind damage. Do not operate the manual override while the awning
is under power or severe damage will occur.
If
you ordered a wind sensor, see the installation instructions included in the box with the control.
3. OPERATION
3-1 Manual Gear Operation:
Your awning may be extended or retracted from either the left or right side depending on how
you ordered it. To extend the awning, place the hook end of your crank handle into the gear
loop located at the far end of the awning. (See Detail #17) Note: Before you operate the
awning all arms must be at the same pitch/angle (8000 series only). Damage will occur
if this procedure is not followed. Turn the hand crank in a circular motion until the awning
is fully extended and the arms “lockin place. When the awning is fully extended the arms
will not be straight. Warning: If you continue to unwind fabric off the roller tube, the fabric
will sag and eventually start to roll up from the under side of the roller tube. This can cause
the fabric to come out of alignment or damage the fabric. The fabric should always r
un over
the top of the roller tube. (See Detail #18) To retract the awning, simply repeat the process,
turning the hand crank in the opposite direction until the awning is fully retracted.
p.12
DETAIL #18
DETAIL #17
3-2 Motorized Operation:
Your new motorized retractable awning has been equipped and preset with factory limit
switches. These settings will allow you to extend or retract your awning to any position at the
touch of a button, without the worry of over extending or retracting your awning. This system
uses a remote control transmitter to operate the awning. Pressing the up button will retract
the awning, pressing down will extend the awning, and to stop the awning, simply press the
stop button. If the awning does not fully open or close, or once open the awning
continues to run unrolling fabric; STOP THE AWNING!!!! and call our toll free hotline
(1-800-858-5818). Note: Your motor comes with a built-in heat sensor to prevent motor
damage in the event of repeated use. This heat sensor will automatically shut the motor
off to allow it to cool before it can be operated again. This cool down period normally
takes between 10-15 minutes. Once the motor has cooled the awning can be operated
normally. Your hand held transmitter is battery operated and replacement batteries are
available at most electronic retail stores.
3-3 Pitch Adjustment:
Flex pitch Shoulder – 8000 Series only.
This patented shoulder system allows you to adjust the angle of your awning to compensate
for changes in the angle of the sun as the seasons change with only the use of your hand crank.
To adjust the pitch (angle) of your awning, extend the awning no more than 1/4 its full
projection. Next, insert the hook end of your hand crank into the silver pitch adjustment loop
on the bottom of each shoulder. (See Detail #17) Now turn the hand crank in either a
clockwise direction to lower the pitch or a counter-clockwise direction to raise the pitch.
Follow the same procedure until all the arms have been adjusted to the desired level. You can
adjust the pitch of your awning when it is fully extended only
if another person holds up the
front of the awning (or arm) and takes the added weight off the flex pitch bolt. (See Detail
#19) Only the person adjusting the flex pitch can determine how high to lift the awning as
the flex loop should turn easily. Over-lifting has the same affect as not lifting at all.
Important: The flex pitch shoulder has limitations to consider when operating. Once you
have achieved the highest possible range of pitch, the loop cannot be turned any farther. Do
not force it! Failure to follow these instructions can damage the flex pitch shoulder and
void the warranty.
DETAIL #19
p.13
4. CARE & MAINTENANCE
4-1 Fabric Care & Cleaning:
The fabric on your awning is made from 100% solution-dyed acrylic yarns. Solution dying is
the process of adding color to acrylic fibers during manufacturing while they are in a liquid state.
By following a few simple steps, the fabric will maintain its good looks for years. Because the
fabric is woven, it is also highly breathable, which is why it dries quickly with only air exposure.
It has also been treated with a fluorocarbon finish, which enhances water repellency. Also, the
fabric will not support the growth of mildew, however dirt on the fabric can lead to mildew
growth, which makes regular cleanings necessary. Your local environment has a great deal to do
with determining cleaning frequency. A dry environment requires less cleaning than a humid
one. You can delay the need for vigorous cleaning by simply hosing the fabric off on a monthly
basis. This will help prevent dirt from becoming embedded in the fabric. A thorough vigorous
cleaning should be done every two to three years.
Important Reminders:
Always use a natural soap. Never detergent.
Water should be cold to lukewarm.
Air dry only. Never apply heat
Cleaning Steps:
1. Brush off loose dirt and debris.
2. Hose fabric down.
3. Mix 1/2 cup of natural soap and water.
4. Use a soft bristle brush to clean.
5. Allow soap to soak in.
6. Rinse thoroughly.
7. Air dry.
For stubborn stains, substitute a 1/4 cup chlorine bleach and 1/4 cup of natural soap for Step
3 above. Apply and let soak for no more than 20 minutes then rinse thoroughly.
4-2 Frame Cleaning & Lubrication:
The frame is composed of powder coated steel or aluminum components with a stainless steel
chain arm tension system, which is virtually maintenance free. All the hardware is made of
high quality, corrosion-resistant materials. Over time, dust and dirt will collect on the frame
and will require periodic cleaning to maintain its appearance. A mild spray cleaner or
water/detergent mixture may be applied to the frame and then wiped clean. In most situations
it should not be necessary to lubricate the moving component parts of your awning.
However, installation near salt water may require the use of silicone or lithium grease spray,
available at your local retailer, when squeaking occurs. Important: Do not use any petroleum
based spray lubricant. One area of note would be the pivot end of the roller tube (the
p.14
opposite end from the gear or motor).
Using the silicone spray with a straw
attached to the spray nozzle, lubricate
generously the area between the end of the
roller tube and the end bracket (pivot pin).
(See Detail #20) Take care not to over-
spray on the fabric material.
4-3 Before Calling for Service:
Important; If you are experiencing any
problems with the installation or
operation of your awning. Do not call
your retailer!!! First try the solutions
provided in the troubleshooting section below or call our Customer Service Support
Team at 1-800-858-5818. Our well trained staff can assist you.
Troubleshooting:
1. The awning has a knocking or cracking noise when operated.
S
olution The awning brackets have not been tightened completely. Be sure the mounting bar
is completely seated in the back of the mounting bracket and tighten the mounting bolt until
the locking lip on the inside of the mounting bracket is drawn down over the mounting bar.
(See Detail #6)
2. The fabric sags and is not tight.
S
olution The fabric can stretch if exposed to rain and water is allowed to pool-up on the
awning. Remember, your awning is designed for shade, not as a rain cover. Retract the awning
in and on the next sunny day, extend the awning and allow it to dry thoroughly. Your awning
should not be rolled up wet for long periods of time.
S
olution The arms are not fully extended. The fabric will be most taut when the arms are at
their furthest projection.
S
olution The arms are at full projection but you have continued to unwind the fabric off the
roller tube. Reverse cranking direction and retract the awning in until the fabric is taut.
Important: The fabric should always rollover the top of the roller tube, not from underneath.
(See Detail #18).
3. The awning squeaks when operated.
S
olution
A squeaking noise can resonate throughout the awning making it difficult to
identify the area to be lubricated. Most commonly it will be the pivot end of the roller tube.
Specifically, the area between the end bracket and the roller tube. See Section 4-2 on how to
lubricate the awning.
p.15
DETAIL #20
4. Unable to adjust the pitch on the awning. (8000 Series only)
S
olution
The awning is already at its maximum height or drop. Do not force the awning any further.
Solution Flex Pitch adjustment is being performed incorrectly. Please refer to Section 3-4
Pitch Adjustment for proper operation directions.
5. The awning does not move in or out.
S
olution Be sure there is power to the outlet. Check to see if there is a reset button on the
exterior outlet or if a circuit breaker is off.
6. The fabric bunches up or wrinkles in places when retracted.
S
olution This can possible occur in wider awnings that have a center support. Center Supports
are mounted to the square tube and positioned around the roller tube to prevent it from
bowing out and keeping the fabric taut while extended. It is common for the fabric to bunch
or pucker slightly on wider awnings. This will not harm the fabric.
4-4 Miscellaneous:
Suggested uses for empty shipping tube:
Rather than cutting up the shipping tube and leaving it for the garbage truck, here are a few
suggestions you may want to try. We're sure you will think of some other uses as well.
1. Cut into sections, paint and use as garden planters.
2. Attach sections vertically in the garage to be used to store brooms, rakes, or hockey sticks.
3. Attach sections horizontally along the garage ceiling to store long lengths of lumber,
moulding or plumbing supplies.
4. Cut into sections and use as a form to hold concrete.
Valance removal:
You may wish to remove and store the valance during long periods when the awning will not
be in use, such as the winter months. As this portion of the fabric is exposed to the weather,
even while the awning is retracted, it will wear and discolor sooner than the main top will. To
remove the valance, simply remove the screws from each front rail end cap with a Phillips
screwdriver. (See Detail #21) Now remove the fabric locks located in the hem on both sides of
the valance and slide it out of the channel. Roll up the valance and place in a plastic bag (be
sure valance is dry) along with the fabric locks and store for the winter. Reattach the front rail
end caps. To install, simply reverse the process.
